What lights to use when passing a crosswalk at night in Subject 3?

When passing a crosswalk at night in Subject 3, you should alternate between high and low beams at least twice. The lighting simulation test items for night driving in Subject 3 include: using low beams when turning at intersections at night, and turning on high beams when driving on low-visibility roads at night. Here are some additional tips for driving at night: When driving at night, if the speed is below 30 kilometers per hour, use low beams, which normally illuminate beyond 30 meters. When approaching an intersection, slow down 50 to 100 meters before the intersection, switch from high beams to low beams, and turn on the turn signal to indicate the direction of travel. When meeting another vehicle, avoid looking directly at it on roads without barriers. Subject 3: Pay attention to special zones. In many areas, the voice prompts no longer remind candidates of special zones such as school zones, bus stops, and crosswalks, but candidates must still slow down or yield based on the project signs and road markings.
Having driven for many years, I remember the key points of the Subject 3 exam clearly: use low beam headlights at night when approaching pedestrian crossings. High beams are too bright and can harm pedestrians, which will result in immediate points deduction by the examiner. Our coach trained us to act in advance: slow down while switching the lights, then pass through slowly. With enough practice, it becomes a natural habit, reducing the risk of accidents. Proper lighting is essential for safe nighttime driving—using low beams ensures clear vision and safety. Beginners should master this technique first; it makes passing the exam easier and ensures peace of mind in daily driving.
From a new driver's perspective: Use low beam for pedestrian crossings at night in Subject 3! High beam is not allowed, the examiner watches closely. Slow down and switch lights when approaching, practice makes it easy. Safe operation passes the test.
